Our <a href=\"http:\/\/soapboxscience.org\/soapboxscience-events\/\">events<\/a> transform public areas into an arena for public learning and scientific debate; they follow the format of London Hyde Park\u2019s Speaker\u2019s Corner, which is historically an arena for public debate. With Soapbox Science, we want to make sure that everyone has the opportunity to enjoy, learn from, heckle, question, probe, interact with and be inspired by some of our leading scientists. No middle man, no PowerPoint slide, no amphitheatre \u2013 just remarkable women and non-binary scientists who are there to amaze you with their latest discoveries, and to answer the science questions you have been burning to ask. Look out for bat simulators, interactive experiments or giant pictures of volcanoes. Or simply hear them talk about what fascinates them, and why they think they have the most fantastic job in the world!&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you would like to participate in the event this year, either as a presenter or a volunteer helping out behind the scenes, please click <a href=\"https:\/\/newcastle.sharepoint.com\/hub\/engagement\/news\/Pages\/Soapbox-Science-Call-for-Volunteers.aspx\">here <\/a>to register your interest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Soapbox Science is coming to Newcastle again!
